CHEESEBURGER QUESADILLA

Cheeseburger Quesadilla image

Burritoville, a local joint down by Southeast University here, specializes in some of the oddest burritos I've ever tasted. From the BBQ chicken to the Buffalo burrito, I've had them all, but they've got only one type of quesadilla. So I've decided to take one of my favorite burritos from there, the cheeseburger burrito and apply it to quesadilla form. Served with a side of fries and a Coke®, it's what I call my most recent of culinary triumphs. Serve with a side of ketchup, yellow mustard, and sweet relish.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon butter
½ small yellow onion, chopped
2 pounds ground beef
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
cooking spray
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Colby cheese
4 teaspoons ketchup, or to taste
4 teaspoons yellow mustard, or to taste
4 teaspoons sweet relish, or to taste

Steps:

Heat butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder; cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, drain liquid from beef, and let sit for 2 minutes.
Heat a griddle or flat pan over medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
Place 1 tortilla on the hot griddle, top with some of the Colby cheese, 1/4 of the beef mixture, 1 teaspoon ketchup, 1 teaspoon mustard, and 1 teaspoon relish. Top with more Colby cheese and 1 tortilla. Flatten the quesadilla with your hand.
Flip quesadilla with a spatula and cook until browned and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes more. Cut quesadilla into 4 pieces. Repeat with remaining tortillas, ground beef, cheese, ketchup, mustard, and relish.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

6 flour tortillas, 8in
1 lb ground beef
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup red onion, diced
cooking spray

Steps:

1. In a skillet, cook the ground beef, adding seasoning salt and pepper, until completely cooked. Drain off the juices and place the beef in a medium-sized bowl.
2. Pour the two cheeses and onions into the bowl with the cooked hamburger meat and thoroughly mix. Place an equal amount of the cheeseburger mixture on each tortilla.
3. Fold each tortilla over to create a "half moon" and press down lightly.
4. Coat the skillet or griddle with cooking spray and warm to a medium heat. Lightly brown each quesadilla for two to three minutes on each side until the cheese melts and the tortillas are crisp.
5. Remove quesadillas from the pan and cut each into 3 wedges. Serve with your favorite cheeseburger fixings like lettuce, tomatoes and pickles.
Hints:.
1. Substitute extra lean ground beef, chicken or turkey for the regular ground beef called for above to make these quesadillas leaner.
2. If you are looking to reduce the fat and cholesterol in your family's diet, choose a skim milk or fat free variety of cheese.
